Saturday Random Ten withchild

It's probably bad form to ask a woman when she's due when she's already had the baby, in general. Which I did to day, with the waitress serving me breakfast. In fact I had noticed that her baby bump was either gone or ominously shrinking. After she told me I was a little tongue tied, but I told her the truth, which was just that I would have expected to take at least a couple of weeks for maternity leave. She replied that she was just out for a couple of days and then got back into the swing of things.

So I think I rescued myself okay. I suspect her benefits aren't that great, though.

A week or so after you were born I went out to buy a few groceries feeling very slim and svelte. A fellow shopper who asked me when the baby was due almost found himself wearing the quart of milk he carried.
